Royal Mint coins to mark Prince George christening

September 29, 2013

LONDON - The christening of Prince William and Kate's firstborn, Prince George, will be marked with a set of commemorative coins, the Royal Mint said Saturday. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's baby son will be christened at the Chapel Royal at St. James's Palace on Oct. 23, just over three months after his birth. It is the chapel where the coffin of William's late mother, Princess Diana, was put for her family to pay last respects in private before her funeral in 1997.
